Carl,

That is a great story and show's what a good job your father did raising his son. I would do anything for my Dad and I know your Dad can be nothing but proud. Good luck with the project, I will be following very closely!

That was a great story Carl. My grandfather also served in WWII and told me stories of his time in North Africa. Sorry to hear of your fathers passing and wish you the best moving forward.

Gentlemen, thank you. To say that this project has been an inspiration is an understatement.

Jody, thank you for making this a sticky.

Chris, you are the first of what I hope are many donations. I have a stretch goal in mind and every little bit helps. Spreading the word and liking Honor Flight Camaro on Facebook will help a bunch.

Rick, get him signed up. Also, Honor Flight is open to ALL veterans, but WWII vets are the focus due to time. Younger veterans are given priority if the need arises (note from doctor/terminally ill.) It's a very noble and compasionate organization.

Jon, I may take you up on that. I have a Dodge MC that needs to go in soon!
